History

In EarthBound, the route from Onett to Twoson was originally blocked by roadblocks, but Ness defeats the Onett police force, and makes Captain Strong open the road to it. When Ness arrives at the town, he goes to Polestar Preschool. Here, he learns the owners' daughter, Paula, had a dream about Ness. He decides to rest in the hotel of the town. In it, Ness gets a dream to go to Paula. He goes on the journey, has Paula join him in his party, and then comes back to the town. He now goes to the Chaos Theater, and buys a ticket to see the Runaway Five perform. He also gets a backstage pass and goes backstage. He learns of the band's unhappiness with the theater, and decides to help. He goes to the theater's runner, Poochyfud, and pays off the debt the band amassed to the theater. The band, ecstatic about their freedom, allows Ness and Paula to ride with them to the town of Threed.
